“When I started with my husband, I even forgot I was supposed to have boyfriends because I had twenty boyfriends at that time…”

Nollywood actress and filmmaker Regina Daniels has recounted how she met her husband, lawmaker Delta North senatorial district, Ned Nwoko.

The couple’s marriage in 2019 sparked widespread reactions due to the 38-year age gap, and Mr Nwoko already had five wives before their marriage.

Many expressed surprise, and some even criticism. However, their union continues to capture public interest, with fans and critics closely following its journey.

During a live conversation with a friend on Instagram on Monday, Regina, 24, narrated her chance meeting with Mr Nwoko during a family outing.

“I was so angry, she admitted, referring to the family’s decision to go sightseeing. “why will all of us visit and go sightseeing? But when I got there, I met a cute man.

She further clarified that marrying Mr Nwoko was entirely her own choice, dismissing rumours that her mother had pressured her into the marriage. She stated that she had over twenty boyfriends before finally settling to marry the 62-year-old.

She said, “When I started with my husband, I even forgot I was supposed to have boyfriends because I had twenty boyfriends at that time, one to buy water and one to do other things.

When people think I didn’t have a choice and when people think mummy forced me, not knowing that mummy was against the marriage and my entire family said no.”
